Method

1. 1

   In a large bowl, mix together the warm milk, sugar, yeast, 1 egg, and vanilla extract until combined.

2. 2

   Add the melted (but not hot) butter and mix well.

3. 3

   Sift in the flour in two batches and knead until you form a soft, non-sticky dough.

4. 4

   Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a towel and let it proof in a warm place for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.

5. 5

   While the dough is proofing, prepare the filling. In a bowl, mix together the cream cheese, starch, sugar, and vanilla until smooth.

6. 6

   To make the streusel, combine the flour, powdered sugar, and butter in a bowl. Use a fork or your fingers to mix until the mixture is crumbly.

7. 7

   Once the dough has proofed, divide it into 9 equal pieces. Gently form each piece into a small ball.

8. 8

   Place the dough balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let them proof for another 20-30 minutes in a warm place.

9. 9

   Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

10. 10

    Using the bottom of a glass or a cup, press down in the center of each bun to create a divot.

11. 11

    Beat the remaining egg to create an egg wash and brush it on the edges of the buns.

12. 12

    Fill each divot with the cream cheese mixture, then top with blueberry jam.

13. 13

    Sprinkle the streusel over the top of each danish.

14. 14

    Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown.

15. 15

    Let them cool slightly before serving.
